All that glitters???There are two battles over Gold at the moment, 1. The BRIB Nations supporting Gold with physical purchases with a view to creating their gold backed currency as an alternative to the US Dollar. 2. The incoming Trump administration are agressively countering this move by supporting digital alternatives backed by blockchain infrastructure,backed by the SWIFT system,the weaponised petrodollar and the global bond markets.Control is the name of the game, Technically Gold is still holding within a wide 4 hour channel but resistance is now stacking overhead as per the attached chart.

Head and Shoulders Top (Bearish Reversal) This pattern occurs after an uptrend and signals that the price is likely to reverse and head downward. It consists of three main peaks: Structure Left Shoulder: The price rises to a peak and then declines. Head: The price rises again to a higher peak (the "head") and then declines. Right Shoulder: The price rises to a lower peak, roughly equal to the Left Shoulder, and then falls back down. Neckline: The line connecting the lows between the shoulders and the head. It acts as support. A break below the neckline confirms the pattern. Steps to Identify Uptrend before the formation. Three peaks: Left Shoulder, Head, and Right Shoulder. The neckline acts as the key support level. When the price breaks the neckline downward, it signals a bearish reversal. How Traders Use It Once the neckline is broken, traders expect the price to fall further. The expected drop is calculated as: Distance from the Head to the Neckline = Expected move downward.

#202451 - priceactiontds - year end special - gold futuresGood Evening and I hope you are well. comment: I know it’s an ugly chart, bear with me. Gold spent 2020 - 2024 inside a 570 point range and started the recent bull trend with the breakout in 2024-03. Since then Gold has made 30%, which is more than unusual to say the least. From 2018 to 2020 it made 50% but only because it lost 36% from 2011 to 2018. Market is much less obvious on higher time frames than I’d like. Both sides have reasonable arguments going for them. For bulls it’s that the bull trend is ongoing while bears could see the leg down from 2826 down to 2566 as the first in the new bear trend. Bulls would like a third leg up which could lead to 3000. Both are valid and that is why it’s most likely that the market will move sideways rather than trend big time to either direction. My favorite path forward would be a trend down to 2300 and then sideways inside a big range 2300 - 2600. current market cycle: Bull trend is ongoing until bears can close consecutive weekly bars below the 20ema, which is at 2640 right now. Could the new bear trend have started with W1 from 2826 down to 2566? Yes. Both can be valid at the same time. key levels for 2025: 2500 - 3000 (if 2500 breaks, 2300 would be the next big target below) bull case: Bulls want a W5 up to 3000. Easy as pie is that read and seeing it on the chart. Hard part, as always, is giving probabilities to it and as of now, I won’t make any. The market is in balance around 2650 and I would need prices above 2760 or below 2560 to have a stronger opinion about it. That’s short but all I have to write about it for now. Can’t make stuff up where there is none. Invalidation is below 2500. bear case: Bears see the move down from the ath as a W1 of the new bear trend which could lead down to my biggest bear goal for 2025 at 2200ish. Here are the big bear targets in order. First is the 50% retracement of the recent bull trend at 2500. It’s also the breakout price from the W1 high and the old ath from 2011-08. Second bigger target would be 2300 which is a measured move down from the bearish W1 from the ath, the 2023-05 high (breakout-retest) and it would close the big bull gap the market left behind. Third and final target, which is the most unreasonable one for now, is 2200 which is the 50% retracement from the whole bull trend since 2018. Invalidation is above 3050. short term: Neutral. Lower highs and higher lows. Market is in a triangle again and in balance around 2650. medium-long term: Will only give one above 2760 or below 2560. current swing trade: None

2024-12-19 - priceactiontds - daily update - goldGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr gold - Bearish. I doubt we can close the week below 2560 but we now have a giant bear gap between 2615 - 2652. No interested in selling this tomorrow but if we close the week below 2600, the bull trend is gone for good. comment : No matter what you think China is doing with Gold, this market is going down. We are 200 points below the ath and the bull trend is most likely over. If we close this week below 2630, it would be the second close below the weekly 20ema since January. current market cycle: trading range key levels: 2590 - 2640 bull case : Bulls are in pain. Every rip is sold hard and we have a clear bear channel. Hard to come up with arguments for the bulls right now. Best they can hope for is to stay above 2600 but this market is as weak as it gets since last week. Invalidation is below 2595. bear case: 2566 is their main target and I am not confident they can get it tomorrow. I expect more chop near 2600 over the next 2 weeks but for Q1 I have wet dreams about 2400. If you want to trade this, look for shorts near the 3h or 4h 20ema and longs only if 2600 continues to be bigger support. Invalidation is above 2642. short term: Neutral. I don’t expect this to go into the weekend far from 2600 but for next 2 weeks I have 2 measured move targets below 2570. medium-long term - Update from 2024-12-19: No bigger opinion on this for the rest of 2024. Market is in balance until we see a new impulse. Likely close around 2600. current swing trade: None trade of the day: selling near the 4h 20ema or bear trend line.

Bearish continuation Flag indicating Gold Fall towards 2665 $Short Entry Zone 2710-2700 Future contract Profit taking zone 2665 Stop Loss( Risk 5% of equity) recommended because in this zone I prefer averaging trade with Max risk of 5% of equity Bearish flag formation which indicate heavy price fall. A **bearish continuation flag** is a technical chart pattern often observed in financial markets, indicating the potential continuation of a downward price trend. Here's a breakdown of the pattern: Components of a Bearish Flag: 1. **Preceding Downtrend (Flagpole)** - A sharp, steep decline in price that forms the "flagpole." - Represents strong selling pressure. 2. **Consolidation Phase (Flag)** - Following the decline, the price consolidates in a relatively narrow range. - This consolidation typically takes the form of a small, upward-sloping rectangle or channel, showing a temporary pause in the trend. 3. **Breakout to the Downside** - The pattern is confirmed when the price breaks below the lower boundary of the flag, resuming the downtrend. - The breakout is often accompanied by increased trading volume. Characteristics: - **Trend Direction**: Continuation of a bearish trend. - **Volume**: Declines during the consolidation phase and increases on the breakout. - **Duration**: Flags are generally short-term patterns, lasting a few days to a few weeks. - **Measured Move**: The expected price drop after the breakout is often equal to the length of the flagpole projected downward from the breakout point. Trading the Pattern: 1. **Entry**: Enter a short position once the price breaks below the flag's lower boundary. 2. **Stop-Loss**: Place a stop-loss above the upper boundary of the flag to limit risk. 3. **Target**: Use the length of the flagpole to estimate the target price for the trade. Example in a Chart: Visualize a steep price drop, followed by a slight upward or sideways drift resembling a "flag," and then another drop once the price breaks below the flag's support.

Gold (MGCG2025): A Technical Perspective and Market OutlookGold prices have seen a slight decline today, with spot gold trading down 0.3% at $2,672.25 per ounce and U.S. gold futures dropping 0.6% to $2,692.70 as of 0914 GMT. Despite the dip, gold remains on track for a weekly gain, fueled by anticipation of the U.S. Federal Reserve’s upcoming policy meeting. The Fed is widely expected to deliver its third rate cut of the year, a move that has underpinned bullion’s appeal. Notably, gold reached a five-week high in the previous session, spurring profit-taking and subsequent price adjustments. Weekly Overview Gold has risen over 1% this week, demonstrating resilience amidst market uncertainties. The five-week high indicates strong bullish sentiment, but the recent pullback suggests a healthy correction before the market determines its next direction. Technical Analysis: 1-Hour Time Frame On the 1-hour chart, gold appears to be gravitating toward a supply zone between $2,700 and $2,711. This range represents a critical resistance area, where selling pressure is likely to increase. The price action in this zone will be pivotal in defining short-term market sentiment. Key Observations: Supply Zone: $2,700 - $2,711. Downward Target: If gold fails to break above the supply zone, the likely move will be a short towards $2,680. This level represents a strong support zone, aligning with recent price activity and technical indicators. Indicators: Momentum indicators such as RSI and MACD suggest overbought conditions as the price approaches the $2,700-$2,711 zone, further supporting the case for a pullback. Trading Strategy For traders, the current market setup presents both opportunities and risks: Short Positions: Consider entering short positions if gold shows rejection at the $2,700-$2,711 supply zone, targeting $2,680. A tight stop-loss above $2,711 is recommended to manage risk. Watch for Breakouts : If gold breaks above $2,711 with strong volume, it could signal a continuation of the bullish trend, invalidating the short bias. Final Thoughts Gold’s performance this week highlights its role as a safe-haven asset in the face of macroeconomic uncertainties. The Fed’s policy meeting next week will likely be a significant driver of gold’s trajectory. While the immediate technical outlook suggests a potential pullback, traders should remain vigilant and adapt to evolving market conditions.

GOLD in monthly chart Nothing has changed in my view about gold chart and I am expecting more corrective sub-waves for its wave 4 we are in. The only concern is about wave iv and (iv) that mentioned with green arrow that can make an extension. The main point is that we are in a wave 4 correction that can prolong more than you expect. Another point that should be considered is that wave 5 is extended and it is supposed to rise roughly up to 3236 and then start to make a deep correct but THE SCENARIO for gold is BULLISH for a while.

Gold Analysis: Key Levels for Reversal (Dec 23, 2024)Hello, this is Greedy All-Day. Today, we will analyze the Gold chart. Daily Chart Analysis Gold has shown a steady upward trend since 2017, forming consistent frames and rising in a stepwise manner. However, even within this long-term uptrend, the potential for both corrections and rebounds exists, which requires careful monitoring and strategic responses. Currently, in the red box zone, we observe the following: The moving averages have not yet formed a death cross, but Gold is facing resistance below both the 20-day and 60-day moving averages on the daily chart. Additionally, the Ichimoku Cloud is acting as resistance, which is unusual compared to its usual supportive role. The last time the Ichimoku Cloud acted as resistance was back in February 2024, making this resistance the first in nearly 10 months. The key support level to watch is 2596.7, which served as last week’s support. However, the possibility of a bearish scenario seems higher for the following reason: The Lagging Span (Chikou Span), currently within the green box zone, is at risk of breaking below the candlesticks. Unless a strong rebound occurs this week, the Lagging Span may pierce through the candles, leading to additional resistance and increasing the likelihood of Gold breaking below 2596.7. If 2596.7 is breached, the next support level is 2541.5. While the lower limit of the bearish frame remains uncertain, the orange box zone represents the next key area to monitor. Depending on the strength of the selling pressure, Gold could potentially test the upper boundary of the orange box. Short-Term Rebound Levels Where can we expect a short-term rebound? The key level to watch is the 2656.2 breakout. After a strong bearish candlestick appeared, Gold established a short-term frame between 2656.2 and 2596.7 on the 1-hour chart. While some rebound attempts followed, Gold has failed to break above the previous high from before the bearish candle appeared. As a result, it remains outside the orange box frame. A breakout above 2656.2 would signify entry into the lower part of the orange box frame, potentially leading to a temporary rebound. For a complete trend reversal, Gold must break above the green box zone, which represents the long-term downtrend line. Conclusion Gold has shown consistent upward trends over the years, but no market can sustain perpetual growth without facing corrections. The current technical indicators suggest a strong possibility of a downward adjustment in the short term. While a temporary rebound could occur above the 2656.2 level, a failure to maintain key support at 2596.7 may lead to further declines toward 2541.5 or even the lower bounds of the orange zone. As always, markets move in cycles. It is important to adapt to changing dynamics and remain prepared for both bullish and bearish scenarios. Patience and discipline are key—profitable opportunities always arise for those who wait for the right moment.

A sad week for GOLD, a happy week to tradeBehold gold, approaching the lowest support from gold's current range, we are eyeing to long a quick 16 win to loss ratio of this asset. This bounce is expected to occur within a matter of hours hoping to take profit at the target or just trail the stop loss while moving up. We are currently on a great support to bounce off off but I believe the lowest for the week is not yet printed. If we go up from here, i will be looking for a short setup But for now, I will be waiting for this level.

Gold Futures Breakdown: Bearish Momentum ConfirmedGold Futures on the 30-minute chart have confirmed a strong bearish trend after breaking below key support levels. The price failed to hold near the Zone Identifier levels (2,655.9) and experienced a sharp decline following two consecutive sell signals. The breakdown below the moving average further strengthens the bearish outlook. Traders could look for short opportunities on pullbacks, targeting the next support zone near 2,600 while managing risk with stops above 2,660. This setup highlights significant selling momentum and a potential continuation of the downtrend.

Gold - The Next Bitcoin?The markets are beyond stretched—they’re squeezed all the way to the moon. Today, I heard some major news: Big Money has already left the party, and others are following suit. This is HUGE. It’s also that classic moment when the barber starts sharing his “secret” stock tips. Now, if you pair this with my recent Bitcoin post—where I outlined how a tulip-like crash could unfold—you’ll see we’re staring at the perfect recipe for a stock market KABOOM. So, where will traders, investors, and even grandmas rush to when this unwinds? My bet: Gold. Where else? This is when the Gold Rocket ignites, replacing Bitcoin and the MAG7, creating yet another bubble—a glittering tulip 5.0. And just like before, it’ll burst when the fuel runs out. Buckle up! 🚀

Gold Positioned for Further Gains Amidst Economic UncertaintyRecent Performance: Gold has seen substantial fluctuations in recent months, reaching record highs while also facing notable resistances. With a year-to- date appreciation exceeding 30%, gold has outperformed other major asset classes, benefitting from a flight to safety as inflation rates continue to rise and geopolitical tensions create uncertainty. - Key Insights: Investors should maintain a close watch on gold as it reveals robust demand against a backdrop of inflation and currency devaluation. The support levels between 2400 and 2500 provide a buffer against potential downturns, while the bullish sentiment surrounding central bank activity underlines gold's status as a critical component of investment strategies. - Expert Analysis: Market sentiment remains cautiously optimistic, with analysts divided. Bullish views on gold stand strong, yet some concern exists regarding possible bearish trends in silver. Experts from firms such as Goldman Sachs warn of high price multiples in the equity markets, cautioning investors of a potential downturn while underscoring gold's attractiveness amid economic fluctuations and interest rate discussions. - Price Targets: Based on professional trading insights, the following targets and stop levels are set for the coming week: - Next week targets: T1 is 2750, T2 is 2835 - Stop levels: S1 is 2600, S2 is 2550 - News Impact: Recent inflation trends have introduced short-term volatility in gold prices, yet central bank strategies continue to support a bullish outlook for gold in the long term. The anticipation of interest rate cuts will be pivotal, increasing gold's allure in investment portfolios, particularly as it maintains strength against currency fluctuations and challenges in other asset classes.

#202450 - priceactiontds - weekly update - goldGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr gold futures: Neutral. Very strong rally Mo-Wednesday just to almost completely reverse and close the week 11 points above the open. Rallies getting stuffed hard now and bulls will only try so many times until we test lower prices. 2630 is the price for bears to break and bulls need anything above 2760 again. It’s much more likely that we close 2024 around 2700. Market has also formed another triangle on the daily/weekly chart, so don’t expect a trending market for the next 3 weeks. Quote from last week: comment : I won’t waste much time with this market this week. Clear triangle and market is in total balance around 2660. Wait for the breakout or play the range. My best guess would be that we both see 2600 and 2700 in the next 3 weeks. comment : Quick and dirty again. Bulls had the perfect setup for 2800+ but blew it. Big bois selling the rips and market formed another triangle. I doubt it will go anywhere in the next 3 weeks. Likely yearly close around 2700. Play the range or don’t trade this at all. current market cycle: trading range key levels: 2620 - 2750 bull case: Bulls blew it. The setup from last weeks Friday was perfect and Mo-We we had amazing follow through. Thursday was a huge bear surprise and bulls just gave up on the rally. They got stuffed big time now two times over the past 5 weeks, which makes me believe that there are probably not many more bulls who want to try a third time. Sideways is the most likely and reasonable thing to expect here. Invalidation is below 2630. bear case: Strong bears selling the rips but I don’t expect them to really try and push this below 2600 again. 2630 was huge support the past weeks and even if they print below, they would still have to break through the big bull trend line from August. Invalidation is above 2763. outlook last week: short term: Neutral inside given range. → Last Sunday we traded 2659 and now we are at 2675. Market went much higher than expected but nowhere on the week, so outlook was ok. short term: Neutral inside given range. medium-long term - Update from 2024-12-07 : No bigger opinion on this for the rest of 2024. Market is in balance until we see a new impulse. Likely close around 2700. current swing trade: None chart update: Nothing
